Anyone care to post up what they think are quality Alice / Alice related interviews?

(There's roughly 112 showing up on youtube to choose from currently...)

Has anybody seen all 112 of these interviews?

lol, Alice?

Guess I'll stick one up but I hope this starts a ball rolling.

Skip about 30 seconds to get to the English speaking bit. I like how outrageous the interviewer looks and still has a genuine quality about it, and that he seems to be a genuine fan.

lol, like to know that you liked that interview he made here!

If it's worth for anyone, what he says in the beginning is:

"the man who invented shock-rock, yes, himself, the man who created it all, there would be no Marilyn Manson without this man, Alice Cooper, and we'll be soon talking to him 'allright. I've heard that he's really a nice guy, will he eat some bat head or something? Or maybe cut his head out? 'Come on kids'."

Then he sing no more mr nice guy, and says "I'm here with Alice Cooper, the king of shock rock, he who invented many things."

Then starts the English part.
At the end he just translates what Alice had just said, and they say the name of the program.

For the record, he really is Alice genuine fan, he was with his leg broken at the show but went to see it anyway, I just one row ahead of him on the second show, and saw he leaving the place. My friend recognized him and spoke to him, he said it was worth the suffering, as I remember.

Brilliant! I've never heard of him before, do you see him on TV alot?
& thanks for the translation, cool to see that he made it to a show with that broken leg. Was he in that kind of ridiculous costume as well?

I think I owned a pair of those green pants, as part of a halloween costume.

Well, he's usually on TV here, but I almost never see him, as I don't really like Brazilian TV, I like more the American programs.

You're welcome!

He was, actually with the exact same costume, he went from that interview direct to the show. My uncle know the person who books (didn't find a better word for that) the interviews with rock musicians, and he told me that he would be making interviews the day of the show, so this interview was recorded few hours before the show started.

Cool....nice one. I'm always watching the interviews. But I haven't seen enough to make any decisions on my favorite . Alice is rarely on TV in the US.

I put these online a while ago but for those who haven't heard them, 2 of the best and quite rare.

Paul Gambaccini interview 1974

Radio Veronica interview 1974

The one he did with Nicky Horne on Radio 1 late 80's or early 90s was probably the best I've heard, that and the Radio Luxembourg one with Ken Evans from 1973, the only surviving copy of which I think Andy Michael has.

I received that from another collector, so other people probably also have it.
